Abstract

Machines, tubes, wires, alarms, closed circuit TV, and intercoms are gradually filling in the spaces around patients' hospital beds. These are spaces that ten years ago were filled by nurses hand-monitoring the progress of patients one at a time. While high technology now allows a nurse to monitor the progress of several patients simultaneously, interpersonal communication through the intercom has varied effectiveness.
